With three passengers, it's approximately £5.03 per person (£15.1 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's £3.78 per person (£15.1 divided by 4).

To delve deeper into the calculations, we can explore the fuel cost calculation. This is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate.

Multiplying this by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £15.1 for the trip from Rugby to Forest of Dean.
 


Diesel cost from Rugby to Forest of Dean.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 10.5 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 5.25 £ (10.5/2) /p.

For 4 passengers: 2.63 £ (10.5/4) /p.


Generally, diesel engines typically consume less fuel than petrol engines when all other factors are held constant. This is mainly because diesel fuel has a higher energy density and diesel engines are more thermally efficient. Diesel contains more energy per liter than petrol, and diesel engines are usually better at converting this energy into mechanical power. Moreover, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, enhancing their thermal efficiency and enabling them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. Consequently, diesel vehicles often deliver superior fuel economy and can cover longer distances per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar specifications.
